Rotherham child sex gang shout ‘Allahu Akbar’ in UK court as they are jailed for 80 years

Members of a Rotherham sex gang today yelled ‘Allahu Akbar’ in court as they were jailed for abusing a girl who fell pregnant aged 12 after being groomed with alcohol.

Six men were given sentences between 10 years and 20 years – and totalling more than 80 years – by a judge who heard details of how two young girls were sexually abused in the South Yorkshire town between 1999 and 2001.

Judge Sarah Wright described how one of the girls was plied with alcohol and drugs and was having sex with a number of men from the age of 11. The victim, in a statement read to the court, said: ‘There’s evil and truly evil people in the world. I feel my child was the product of pure evil.’

The sentencing marks the end of a series of three major trials after a report on child sexual exploitation in Rotherham revealed that more than 1,400 youngsters had been groomed, trafficked and raped in the town over a 16-year period. It has led to 18 people being jailed for sentences totalling more than 280 years.

In November last year Sageer Hussain became the last of four brothers jailed for ‘degrading and violent’ sexual offences against youngsters. The Hussains were the most notorious perpetrators of terrible abuse against teenage girls in Rotherham.

There were emotional and chaotic scenes at Sheffield Crown Court after two of the latest defendants shouted ‘Allahu Akbar’ as they were led from the dock. As their supporters began shouting down into the court, one of the victims shouted back ‘justice is served’ as police moved into the public gallery.

Brothers Basharat Dad, 32, Nasar Dad, 36, both from Rotherham, and Tayab Dad, 34, of Tinsley, Sheffield, were jailed for sex offences along with Matloob Hussain, 41, Mohammed Sadiq, 40, both from Rotherham, and Amjad Ali, of Worksop, Nottinghamshire.

Basharat Dad was jailed for 20 years, Nasar Dad was given 14 years and six months, Tayab Dad was given 10 years, Hussain was given 13 years, Sadiq was given 13 years and Ali was given 11 years.

The girl’s pregnancy made headlines in 2001 when she was portrayed as one of Britain’s youngest ever mothers. Although five men were arrested, there were no prosecutions at the time after the victim told police she could not say which of the men she had had sex with was the father.

Judge Wright said in court today that she had ‘no hesitation’ in finding that the girl could not remember because she was heavily under the influence of drugs and alcohol.

He paid tribute to the woman, who was sitting just a few feet away from her in the packed courtroom as the men were jailed. The judge said: ‘As a result of what happened to her, her childhood and adolescence was taken from her. She remarkably transformed her life from thereon, putting her own child first. Hers is a tale of the most astonishing dedication and bravery.’

In the impact statement read to the court, the woman said: ‘I was drawn into a world of fear, rape and horrific abuse. I lost my childhood at the hands of those men.’ She described how she was shunned by many in her community who called her worse things than ‘dirty, cheap sl*g’.

She said: ‘No-one understood. No-one wanted to understand. I felt lost, isolated, trapped, ashamed and completely worthless. I was completely owned by these dirty old men who would do with me whatever then wanted, whenever they wanted.’

The sentencing marks the end of a series of three major trials after the Jay Report on child sexual exploitation (CSE) in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. Professor Alexis Jay’s report, in 2014, provoked a wave of shock when she described how more than 1,400 children had been groomed, trafficked and raped in the town over a 16-year period.

The three trials – based around two families and their associates – have resulted in 18 people being jailed for sentences totalling more than 280 years.

The investigation that resulted in today’s sentences, called Operation Thunder, is the last into CSE in Rotherham to be led by police. The National Crime Agency (NCA) has taken over all historic Rotherham CSE investigations with a team of more than 100 working on over a dozen inquiries.

Last year, the NCA said it had engaged with 133 victims and survivors but investigators were confident that Prof Jay was right when she said in her report that the total was around 1,400. The agency said it was looking at hundreds of potential suspects.

Speaking outside court on Thursday, Detective Chief Inspector Martin Tate, from South Yorkshire Police, said: ‘This is our third significant inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Rotherham and, with the lengthy jail terms handed down to these individuals today, we have now put 18 criminals behind bars for over 280 years.

‘Following the successes achieved, we will now continue to move forward using the learning and best practice we have acquired over the last few years, through work done with our brave victims, their families and partnership agencies, to apply this practice to future investigations.

‘I’d encourage any victims and survivors out there who are yet to come forward to please get in touch or tell someone you trust. Officers and specialist support agencies are here to listen, to investigate and to bring perpetrators of this heinous crime before the courts.’

Whether it is called sexual grooming in UK, love jihad in Bharat or forced conversions in Pakistan, this phenomenon is a blight which all right-thinking people need to wake up and acknowledge.

The horrific abuse of 1400 young girls in Rotherham went uncovered for so long due to political correctness and fear of British police/administration from being branded as racist Islamophobes. Similarly in Bharat, the ugly reality of love jihad is dismissed due to our elites’ obsession with secularism and minority votebank politics.

UK has woken up and taken steps to deliver justice – 18 people being jailed for sentences totalling more than 280 years. This will bring some solace to those who suffered, and act as a stern deterrent to future criminals. Hopefully, these trials will force the Muslim community to stop living in denial and confront the mindset of those in their midst who regard kafir women as nothing better than a piece of meat.

The question we need to ask is when will politicians, media, police and judiciary in Bharat wake up?
